a wish ~ ~ WITH OPTIMUS PICTOR
In the window of a junk shop, made more attractive for the holidays, is proudly displayed on the cover of a magazine, "Time" weekly, a vintage of Fifty, the date is not read well, but it reads very well, because in large letters, one written announcing: "The Betrothed illustrated by De Chirico." The characters in the novel's most popular literature portrayed by the great Italian painter of the twentieth century in the pages of a magazine . One who did move the avant-garde with the strength of his paintings (surrealism, for example) and who defeated the vanguard with the return to traditional painting, Rubens even then had the humility to be an illustrator and the greatness of being also recognized and loved by the popular audience. Like Picasso, for that matter. An installer will not comment because it has a literary page layout to drawing and painting, perhaps even to the intelligent reading. The habentes minus the "conceptual" confuse the latinorum difficult to impress farmers relatives. Missing them all the grace of Giorgio de Chirico, who also illustrated manuals not only Manzoni, or that of Raphael who painted the banners for the processions. The history of art (but also the music) is full of genes that is working to translate the meaning of the faithful the mysteries of Christianity. Without the obsession upstart of originality, simply with the talent of the artist, who has a hand that is suitable for making the figures. That 2011 will start to free ourselves from traffickers bloated pomposity of contemporary culture. One year of simplicity, that shines in an age of simple-minded.
